Romans 14:6 - People's Commentary (NT)

Romans 14:6

4 ^aWho are you to judge another’s servant? To his own master he stands or falls. Indeed, he will be made to stand, for God is able to make him stand.

5 ^aOne person esteems one day above another; another esteems every day alike. Let each be fully convinced in his own mind.

6 He who ^aobserves the day, observes it to the Lord;¹ and he who does not observe the day, to the Lord he does not observe it. He who eats, eats to the Lord, for ^bhe gives God thanks; and he who does not eat, to the Lord he does not eat, and gives God thanks.

7 For ^anone of us lives to himself, and no one dies to himself.

8 For if we ^alive, we live to the Lord; and if we die, we die to the Lord. Therefore, whether we live or die, we are the Lord’s.

9 For ^ato this end Christ died and rose and lived again, that He might be ^bLord of both the dead and the living.

10 But why do you judge your brother? Or why do you show contempt for your brother? For ^awe shall all stand before the judgment seat of¹ Christ.

11 For it is written:
^a“As I live, says the Lord,
Every knee shall bow to Me,
And every tongue shall confess to God.”

Romans 14:6

Romans 14:6 He that regardeth the day, regardeth [it] unto the Lord. It is regarded unto the Lord if he keeps it, because he thinks it is the Lord's will. If another refuses to keep it, because he believes it is the Lord's will that he should not, his non-keeping is to the Lord. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord. Meats. See Romans 14:2. He who obeys what he regards the Lord's will in this, either eating or abstaining, does it with reference to the Lord.
